I get sidetracked with painting sometimes,... when it doesn't really matter.
My brother from a different mother..... Tell me about it. I scubbed & scrubbed the splash shields for the front brakes on the dually. Prob spent 1hr on each one getting them clean & smooth enough to shoot w/a rattle can & not look like crap.

Did I mention that was on both the spindle side & rotor side. Yesterday it was the th400 (including the inside the bellhousing where the input shaft is)

It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
